Wadi Shab is a breathtaking piece of nature. It is mainly a slender gorge, featuring pristine pools of water and awe-inspiring caves ready for exploration. The only way to access the wadi is by boat, further enhancing the thrill and anticipation of visiting this lovely site.
As you step in, you will instantly understand why it’s hailed as one of Oman’s most impressive wadis. You will find yourself enveloped by lofty cliffs on both sides, with cerulean waters coursing below you.
The crowning glory of Wadi Shab is the Keyhole, a petite aperture in the rocks that paves the way to an amazing cave housing its unique waterfall. To get to the Keyhole, you need to first swim across one of the transparent pools and then dive into the constricted passageway.
But if you’re not a fan of swimming, fear not! There are several moments for hiking and meandering all over Wadi Shab, ranging from traipsing through picturesque canyons to unveiling secluded brooks nestled in fertile foliage.
